I am so disgusted with microsoft.

I just want to cry that they make bajillions of dollars marketing shitty software.

I'm at work, trying to install Win NT 4.0, which I have done successfully 3 times previously, with nearly identically hardware. This time it's reporting invalid BS after it boots for the final time and I can't log in as administrator, the account that it specifically creates at installation.

I tried to reinstall it to wipe everything out and make sure I didn't miss something, but it won't give me the option to low level format the drive and start from nothin'. It will only allow me to update the current installation. I did that and was not give the option to recreate the admin account. I just want to start from scratch. Please microsoft, please let me just start over.

Grrrr

pre rally

12:43pm Friday 4 February 2000

Rally begins tonight!! This time in Dallas, a relatively short-ish drive once we get out of Houston traffic. We're leaving at 7pm -- Wende and I driving separate vehicles full of youth. Big big fun!!

I hope I'll be able to write some during the weekend.

Yay!!

With Love
